Transformational commitment to Intermountain Health accelerates Nevada Campaign for Kids and brings Nevada's first comprehensive children's hospital closer to reality.
Las Vegas, NV (PRUnderground) October 7th, 2026

A $50 million commitment from Larry and Heidi Canarelli to the Intermountain Healthcare Foundation from Larry and Heidi Canarelli will help bring Nevada's first comprehensive, stand-alone children's hospital closer to reality. Intermountain Health's Nevada Campaign will expand access to specialized pediatric care in the state, thanks to this remarkable gift.
To honor the family's generosity, Intermountain Health will name the inpatient tower the Larry & Heidi Canarelli Inpatient Tower. Set to open in 2030, the tower will be a transformational place of healing, where breakthrough technology, specialized pediatric expertise and extraordinary compassion come together for children and families. It will include 180 inpatient beds, with room to expand to 228. Planned services include a trauma center, an emergency department, the state's highest-level neonatal intensive care unit, pediatric intensive care, cancer center, behavioral health services, child abuse treatment center, and advanced medical and surgical specialties.
"We've been fortunate to build in Nevada for a long time and watch generations of families put down roots here," said Larry Canarelli and Heidi Canarelli. "Every child deserves access to great care close to home. We hope this helps keep more Nevada families together during some of life's most difficult moments."
For decades, the Canarelli family has helped shape Southern Nevada through leadership in homebuilding, education, and community development. Their commitment now extends that legacy by investing in the health of children and families, creating new opportunities for future generations to grow up healthier and stronger in the community they call home.
"The Canarelli family's extraordinary commitment is helping create something Nevada has never had before: a comprehensive health system for children, built around the complex needs of kids and families," said David Flood, Chief Development Officer, Intermountain Health, and President, Intermountain Foundation. "We are grateful for their willingness to place their name behind this remarkable endorsement. The Larry & Heidi Canarelli Inpatient Tower is turning generosity into lasting capacity for children's health in Nevada."
The Canarelli family's gift, which is strongly encouraged and supported by their children--Stacia Lemke, Jeffrey Canarelli, and Alyssa Canarelli, reaches beyond the walls of the new tower. It will help Intermountain Children's Health advance its vision to build the nation's model health system for children by expanding access to specialized care, recruiting leading pediatric expertise and strengthening services for children across Nevada, including pediatric behavioral health.
For families in Nevada, the change will be measured in miles not traveled. "Soon, a child in Las Vegas, who needs the highest level of intensive care, will be able to get it here," said Mitch Cloward, Intermountain Health Region President. "This kind of access changes what is possible for families when every hour, every step and every mile matters."
Later this month, Intermountain Health is expected to break ground for the hospital at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas Harry Reid Research and Technology Park, in southwest Las Vegas.
"When we launched this campaign, we asked our community to imagine what would be possible if every Nevada child could receive comprehensive, top-quality care at home," said Bill Hornbuckle, CEO of MGM Resorts International and Wendy Hornbuckle, Co-Chairs of the Nevada Campaign for Kids. "Larry and Heidi just answered that question by adding tremendous fuel to what will be one of the most inclusive and galvanizing campaigns Nevada has seen. Now we're asking others in this state to answer it, too."

For more than 20 years, Michel Reybier Hospitality has been rethinking luxury. Far from showiness and ostentation, its approach rests on three values: excellence, authenticity and simplicity. Across its portfolio, from city addresses in Paris, Geneva and Zurich to grand hotels in the Swiss Alps, villas on the French Riviera and private homes in the Indian Ocean, each address is shaped by its destination, with quality always taking precedence over quantity and service tailored to each guest. Its idea of luxury is personal, built on a profound respect for privacy and intimacy and on the discreet, attentive presence of its teams. Each destination keeps its own identity while sharing the same values.

After artist Oscar Chan Yik-long left Hong Kong for Europe – first to Paris, then Helsinki – in 2019, he did not return to the city for many years. Widely considered one of Hong Kong’s most promising young talents, Chan even missed his 2021 solo exhibition – a display of the gothic, monochrome works he is best known for – at Gallery Exit in Aberdeen, Hong Kong, because he could not bring himself to board a long-haul flight. What kept him away was fear. At the time, Chan was suffering from severe...

The recent American midterm elections offered yet another glimpse into a political culture increasingly defined by division and hostility. In the state of Ohio, Republican gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy ran an attack advertisement against his Democratic rival, Amy Acton, exploiting painful details of her childhood. President Donald Trump publicly defended the advertisement. The episode was emblematic of a country where political conflict has come to reflect something far more profound...
Some time in the last decade the bathroom shelf turned into a filing system. A cleanser for the morning and a different one for the evening; an acid on Tuesday, a retinol on Wednesday – and a barrier cream for the two nights afterwards, while your face recovers from the first two. But at some point, people started getting tired. Not of skincare exactly, but more of the admin: the cross-referencing, the percentages; the low-grade sense that there’s a step you’ve missed and a launch you haven’t...
For 42-year-old Allison Vecchio, GLP-1 drugs were “a reset button on life”, but came at a price – with side effects like gastrointestinal distress, brittle nails and feelings of weakness so intense that at times she could not leave her bed. But Vecchio, an emergency room nurse based in Fort Pierce, in the US state of Florida, says the symptoms eased when she began a cocktail of supplements that included fibre, collagen and electrolytes, a haul that costs US$200 to US$300 a month. “You really...
